Where's my powerslide? (joking)

It would be really cool if they mounted the camera above the car to give a 3rd person perspective, just like the game. Or could somehow use magnets to make a hovercraft ;-)

Why joking? Powersliding is possible. Tape up the tires or otherwise reduce their frictional coefficient. See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TraYbBVRH4
